To Assemble:
Willow Wind ships in two boxes, a large box with most of the sculpture and a smaller box with the round base of the sculpture. I separated the parts to keep the weight of the large box down and so that the round "foot" of the sculpture won't damage the other parts during shipping.
•Unpack all the parts.
•Do not remove the tape holding the belts in place.
•Remove the protective plate from the bottom of the upright base by unscrewing the nuts. Save the nuts and washers.
•Place the round bottom base on the floor. Pick up the upright base and slide the bolts into the holes in the round base. I've circled one hole and colored the matching bolt black.
•Lay sculpture down as shown.
•On the bottom of the base, place the washers on the bolts followed by the nuts. Tighten securely using a ?? wrench.
•Stand the sculpture up.
•The bird assemblies need to go on the correct side of the sculpture. They are marked A and B for that purpose. Remove the marking tape before sliding the assemblies into place.
•Carefully slide the bird assemblies onto their respective axels. There are two bearings in the sleeve, make sure you get the axel through both of them.
•Remove the tape securing the belts.
